Darth Lion Posted December 13, 2009 Posted December 13, 2009 Yeah I saw the trailer- but i strongly disagree - i loved the ending of the Force Unleashed - absolutely epic- unfortunately i see that sequel would only ruin the story - but if it is a good game that don't matter much (perhaps little more diversity for Game play- vehicles, fighters?- possibility to use blasters and rockets as well as saber and force like in the Jedi Outcast/Academy) Unfortunately there probably will not be much changes- just more Starkillering- now in more jedi way though- but new bosses new planets and more of that awesome fun- and She is "Maris Brood"- don't matter to me but it is how her name is spelled -we had a tiny argument about spelling here some time ago Well this has become massive Where's KimT with his "Stay on target" comment. I love all upcoming sets but my favourites are Swamp Speeder, Freeco Speeder and the battle packs! TLC did a great job designing the minfigures. Just ... have to ... get them! Quote

I love all upcoming sets but my favourites are Swamp Speeder, Freeco Speeder and the battle packs! TLC did a great job designing the minfigures. Just ... have to ... get them! This topic is so massive now that it would be better to start another one- but staying in topic -i don't really like the Freecospeeder -boring set with 2 not very useful figs - no cold assault troops- no droids, no normal talz without headgear, no pantorans and no Obi-Wan (His suit would be needed more- Han in echo base has similar coast as Anakin- except the jedisymbol of course) Well at least i don't have to had that so i can buy more bp:s instead and i'm looking forward to Grievous' fighter and Palpatine's shuttle Quote
Zzz Posted December 13, 2009 Posted December 13, 2009 Can't we get a new thread for this whole damn eye thing. I excused already in advance and asked for understanding that some people care. There are also a lot of things endlessly discussed in this topic that I or others don't care at all about, but I never made such a statement about it. I am sorry, but I concern about other things than you, no need for your reply. Quote
RoryoCox Posted December 13, 2009 Posted December 13, 2009 I cannot believe how big this eye/pupil thing has got. It is only two little dots which most people would not even notice. If it is such a big thing then just buy some original heads on bricklink or something. Anyway back on topic, I hope TLC surprise us with some more sets before the first wave of sets is released everywhere. There is still the Wampa Attack set to be confirmed if it is going to happen.

TheBrickDaddy Posted December 13, 2009 Posted December 13, 2009 There is still the Wampa Attack set to be confirmed if it is going to happen. Yes, I think a few people have confirmed it. Once again, does anyone besides me think that the Swamp Speeder and the Landspeeder could be some sort of pair set? Like the Corporate Alliance Tank and the Echo/Hoth Base sets last year? Same figs, potentially the same price ($25 USD)... who knows? Quote
Fumoffu Posted December 13, 2009 Posted December 13, 2009 And what does that have to do with Lego? We'll probably never see another TFU set again. Never say never. I wonder if Lucas have much say in what set Lego releases. Maybe its compulsory to release one EU set to support the release of TFU2 to help the game's publicity. Quote
RoryoCox Posted December 13, 2009 Posted December 13, 2009 Sorry if this has already been posted. Amazon.com have a release date. It says that the two battlepacks will be released on the 1st January. Cannot wait until then. http://www.amazon.com/LEGO-Star-Wars-Snow-...8094&sr=1-1 Again sorry if this has been posted already. Quote

Cannot wait until then. http://www.amazon.com/LEGO-Star-Wars-Snow-...8094&sr=1-1 Again sorry if this has been posted already. 1st January is the standard release date for this winter wave, but they seem to surface elsewhere sometimes beforehand. Places like Amazon and Shop@Home usually wait until 1st Jan. Also, availability information belongs in the 'Star Wars sets anyone?' thread. Thanks anyway. Edited December 13, 2009 by ADHO15 Quote

Same figs, potentially the same price ($25 USD)... who knows? I really think it is going out in May/August they have made tauntaun and now more accurate hat for Luke- so actually only reason to buy it -would be Wampa- so it will be quite expensive but pretty useless set I really want the new Grievous and if Palpatine's shuttle will be Theta model from ROTS (like surprisisngly many of new sets) It would be great if there would be Emperor, 2 Coruscant clones, pilot clone, 2 red guards and more accurate burned Vader than the one in the transformation set- then stretcher for Vader- some nice wing action and as extras saber and death star plans for Emperor -like in the Venator- would be cool Quote

Darth Legolas Posted December 13, 2009 Posted December 13, 2009 Hello America! They are definitely here! I just picked up a bunch of the battlepacks, and saw almost everything 2010 at the store. And I rarely get things first, which means they must be worldwide! Now back on topic: On the subject of Swamp Speeders: I think Lego will never confirm anything about weather they are Clone Wars or ROTS, but it doesn't matter.It's almost impossible to tell, and the only difference above all are the faces.

commdr_neyo Posted December 13, 2009 Posted December 13, 2009 (edited) There's also a review of the ARC here. Edited December 13, 2009 by commdr_neyo Quote
The Legonater Posted December 13, 2009 Posted December 13, 2009 best Wedge will be that soldier head from indy-sets Funny, that's what id did. I'm still trying to make a decent Tycho thoguh. There's no good male blond heads. And is that Bariss Ofee with the Swamp Speeder? If it, then there's a lot of Irony- I do believe her master, luminara, came with the last swamp speeder set... Quote

I really like the look of the Swamp speeder, it just annoys me though, that it only comes with one phase 2 trooper. I'll have to get atleast 2 to have a nice even pair of them.

The Who Posted December 13, 2009 Posted December 13, 2009 I still don't understand why the Swamp Speeder picture has the Tattooine (however you spell that) background. Since when did desert planets have swamps? I'm worried that it'd damage the printing too. I done it several times, and it has never damaged any printing at all. Quote

lightningtiger Posted December 13, 2009 Posted December 13, 2009 We already know the Wampa set won't have a tauntaun, but a snowspeeder instead. Lego are very clever people, cheeky too. You see in the Wampa set you get the snowspeeder right, where's the pilot ? Oh, he's in the battle pack running past the ice cutter isn't he. Very clever Lego, but most of us will be buying both of them anyway. Quote
The Legonater Posted December 13, 2009 Posted December 13, 2009 I looking forward to several more Phase 2s- I'm building an order 66 tmple assaulte scene and have realized how little Phase 2s I have... Quote

Oh, he's in the battle pack running past the ice cutter isn't he. Very clever Lego, but most of us will be buying both of them anyway. I'm pretty sute that the snowspeeder will come with at least one pilot to fly it. It may or may not be another Zev Senesca, but I doubt they'd include a T-47 without anyone to pilot it. It does have a cockpit for two, so I'm guessing TLG will just inlcude the one pilot. Quote
The Legonater Posted December 13, 2009 Posted December 13, 2009 I'm pretty sute that the snowspeeder will come with at least one pilot to fly it. If we're lucky we might get a Tycho... Quote
lightningtiger Posted December 13, 2009 Posted December 13, 2009 Looks like we have a new debate starting, oh well. Maybe you are right, but why is Lego putting Zev in a battle pack if we only see him flying a search and rescue mission to find Luke and Han, in a snowspeeder, you don't see or hear of another pilot seated behind him. So Lego might just use the brick-builders licence with Lucas and come up with their own change to the story line. Quote
ADHO15 Posted December 13, 2009 Posted December 13, 2009 If we're lucky we might get a Tycho... Maybe, or Derek 'Hobbie' Klivian. He's a pretty famous rebel pilot, and he has an interesting helmet design. Looks like we have a new debate starting, oh well.

So Lego might just use the brick-builders licence with Lucas and come up with their own change to the story line. Why a debate? What are you arguing about? Zev fought in the Battle of Hoth as well, piloting a snowspeeder. He died when it was shot down by an AT-AT. Quote
JCC1004 Posted December 13, 2009 Posted December 13, 2009 Maybe, or Derek 'Hobbie' Klivian. He's a pretty famous rebel pilot, and he has an interesting helmet design. Why Tycho? He wasn't even in ESB. More Rebel Pilots is a great idea! Hobbie's helmet looks a lot like Dutch Vander's. See? I really love the new orange visor and torso design. I wish I could update all of my smiley pilots with the new parts. Quote
ADHO15 Posted December 13, 2009 Posted December 13, 2009 Why Tycho? He wasn't even in ESB. No, but he did fight on Hoth too. When Echo Base was discovered by the Empire and evacuated, Celchu fought with the Rogues to cover the Rebellion's retreat. TLG doesn't usually care about details like that, though. Quote
